First, rig control is abysmally slow and unresponsive. It’s supposed to have more bells and whistles and work better. This version directly supports the TS-990. Switch to Fldigi and guess what? My call sign started to immediately pop up on the spotting network.įast forward to now. I fired up another receiver and hung my iPad on it with a PSK program running and it had no trouble reading what was coming out of the 990. According to the dials I was putting out a nice, clean signal. I didn’t even show up on the PSK spotting network. I’d call CQ until I was blue in the face, and nothing. Even worse, I couldn’t make contacts with it in the digital modes, which is what I wanted it for in the first place. I couldn’t get it to trigger transmit via the COM ports no matter what I tried, and had to resort to using VOX. The rig control part of the program would stop working for no apparent reason from time to time, it occasionally did bizarre things, like somehow change the maximum transmission power to 25 watts for no reason I was ever able to figure out. HRD 6 sort of, almost, kind of worked with the 990. Version 6.0 gave me nothing but grief when I was attempting to use it with the TS-990S. I’ve finally given up on HRD (Ham Radio Deluxe).
